UFC President Dana White is making the rounds in Germany this weekend for UFC 99, the organization's first show in Continental Europe. Part 1 of his video blog is above; Part 2 is below.

I would have liked more Dana White video blogs for UFC 99, but the Mike Swick video blogs will have to do. Swick, who will take on Ben Saunders Saturday, is the subject of the videos you see above and below.

All 24 fighters stepped on the scales Friday in Cologne, Germany, for an eventful UFC 99 weigh-in. The loudest cheers were for Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic, who will have the crowd on his side fighting a day's drive from his home in Croatia. Wanderlei Silva, fighting at a catchweight of 195 pounds for the first time in the main event against Rich Franklin, looked chiseled as he stepped on the scale at one pound under the limit. And two shoving matches broke out during stare-downs featuring undercard fighters: Denis Stojnic and Stefan Struve got a little too close and UFC President Dana White had to break them up, and then Paul Kelly bumped heads with Rolando Delgado, prompting Delgado to respond with a hard push. White could be heard saying, "Don't put your hands on each other" when the next pair of fighters had their stare-down.

Video is here and full weigh-in results are below.

All 24 fighters will step on the scales Friday at 10 AM ET for the UFC 99 weigh-ins, and if you can't be there in Cologne, Germany, you can watch the video right here. UFC 99 features a main event of Rich Franklin vs. Wanderlei Silva, held at a catchweight of 195 pounds, plus big heavyweight fights featuring Cheick Kongo vs. Cain Velasquez and Mirko Cro Cop Filipovic vs. Mostapha Al-Turk. The weigh-in video is below.

The UFC doesn't shy away from promotiong a good grudge match between two of its stars, but as the above video shows, the main event at UFC 99, featuring Rich Franklin vs. Wanderlei Silva, is the exact opposite of a grudge match.

The run-up to the UFC 99 fight between Marcus Davis and Dan Hardy has focused mostly on the fighters' personal animosity for each other, and the above video pretty well shows that animosity on display.
